"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken

Wikileaks is a great organization and they've published all sorts of great material from whistle-blowers who have evidence of embarassing illegal activities especially of the govt or the companies they collude with. Naturally the USG wants to shut them down.
I sometimes wish that these types of leaks did not happen since it is clear that they exist and are available for easy consumption. This just means that this type of behavior is condoned since the elected officials are not being run out of town and the white house is not being picketed. If only there was a way to wake up our compatriots to the reality of the world instead of this stylized ideal leftover from "The Greatest Generation". How about loud airhorns?
